1/4 scale T-38 scratch build
Been building this 1/4 scale T-38 for the last 5 months and getting closer to completion. Built entirely out of 1" thick Dow blue foam and wings are pink foam. Power is two Stumax sm100-45 fans on 10S each. About 9000 watts total. Hope to fly it in the next month or so.

Great project! What is its expected flying weight? Is it fiberglassed? Who would have thought foam could be made so beautiful!
Good luck on the maiden.
Cheers
